Interference on Radar Detector

Just wondering if anyone has ever had troubles with their stereo or alarm or any other electronic device setting off their radar detector? My Uniden 6599 was going haywire in my car, but in another vehicle, there were no problems. Check out my sig and let me know if you have a brainwave. I'm stumped-thanks.

I had the some problem w/ my radar detector when I got my new fiberglass hood, it went nuts all the time no matter what... it seems the light was reflecting off the black hood and giving out some sort of radar signature or something. I don't see anything that might be causing it, personally.
Sorry, wish I could be more help!

I do have a new paint job, and that had crossed my mind, actually. Thanks for the input...anyone else?
